Mikepércs: Dewy Dragonfly

This morning I started to the bathing pool to do some work there. I thought the foggy morning could show me something interesting, so I took the camera with me.
On one side of the sandy road something comes into view among the vegetation: a numb dragonfly is sitting on a stem completely covered by tiny drops of water which gives it an almost white appearance:

Szepes, Debrecen: Dragonfly

Today I tried to take photos at the pond near Szepes. But the birds didn't come close enough (they didn't have enough time to get used to the hide as it hadn't been there). This dragonfly however was flying quite close for a long time:
